Former Real Housewives of Atlanta star Kim Zolciak is facing new legal drama, this time, not from her own rocky marriage, but from being entangled in someone else’s $100 million divorce.
According to court documents obtained by Us Weekly, Zolciak was served a subpoena on September 30 as part of the ongoing divorce between Kyle Mowitz and his estranged wife, Jillian Green. The subpoena, issued by Green’s legal team, demands that Zolciak sit for a deposition and turn over extensive documentation related to her alleged relationship with Mowitz.
Zolciak, 47, was served in the parking lot of a Georgia high school. The documents requested from her include all communications with Mowitz, any messages involving “payment for services or communications concerning [Mowitz],” and documents “regarding gifts from Mowitz, or any business he owns.”
But it doesn’t stop there. Green’s legal team also wants Zolciak to hand over any paperwork “regarding or pertaining to [her] financial relationship with Kyle Mowitz, including but not limited to gifts given or received… expenses paid on [her] behalf by Mr. Mowitz or any business in which he is connected, monies loaned to [her] and monies paid to [her] by Mr. Mowitz or any businesses with which he is connected.”
The subpoena even demands information about any travel with Mowitz, including “travel arrangements, itinerary, where they stayed and the payment of all expenses.” Additionally, Green wants to see communications Zolciak may have had with third parties—including her own estranged husband, Kroy Biermann—regarding Mowitz.
Zolciak isn’t taking the subpoena lightly. Her attorney responded by calling the request “unreasonable, oppressive and intended to annoy and embarrass her.”
As for Mowitz’s legal team, they are keeping their statements limited to the courtroom. His attorney, Marvin Solomiany, told Us Weekly, “We are not going to litigate the facts surrounding our client’s divorce case outside of the applicable legal proceedings. We encourage you to review the pleadings we have filed on our client’s behalf, which accurately represent our client’s position relating to this matter.”
He added, “As to Ms. Kim Zolciak, Ms. Mowitz’s decision to involve her in the divorce case is highly unnecessary as any relationship our client may have with her only began after the parties’ separation.”
The legal feud between Mowitz and Green has only escalated since the March filing. Mowitz is seeking joint legal and physical custody of the couple’s children, asserting that Green “did not need support” and is an “able-bodied adult capable of gainful employment.”
Green countered a month later, requesting primary custody and child and spousal support. She claimed in her court filings that she had trusted Mowitz to handle their “substantial wealth” and accused him of creating a family trust in 2021 while “engaged in an extra-marital affair and contemplating divorce.” Green alleges that the trust—allegedly containing over $100 million in investments—was created without her knowledge and placed under Mowitz’s sole control.
In a separate filing, Mowitz claimed it was Green who had an affair during the marriage. Both parties have denied any wrongdoing.
As of now, a judge has yet to rule on Zolciak’s subpoena or the broader divorce battle between Mowitz and Green. But with allegations of secret trusts, affairs, and multimillion-dollar asset transfers flying, this legal drama may just be getting started.
